Answer:

Answer choice b. is correct. You have it right.

Step-by-step explanation:

You go left 2 because of the negative sign. Since you are subtracting a negative number, you add the opposite, so you add 4.

-2-(-4)

-2+4

Fred the owl is looking down at a 67° angle from the top of a tree that is 15 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. How f

guapka [62]

Answer:

Fred C. 16.30 ft

Gary B. 169.67 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Fred the owl...

Always draw a diagram first (see diagram below). We assume trees are perpendicular (at 90°) to the ground. The situation forms a right-angle triangle.

We need to find "x", which is the direct distance between the owl and the bird. "x" is also the hypotenuse, which is the longest side in a right-angle triangle. Since we know a side and an angle, we can find the hypotenuse using primary trigonometry ratios.

∠B will be the angle of reference (the angle we are "talking" about). The side we know is opposite to ∠B (15ft). We know it's opposite because it's not touching the angle. The side we need to find is the hypotenuse.

Use the trig. ratio sine because it has opposite and hypotenuse in it. The general formula is:

sinθ = opp/hyp

θ means the angle, and we know it is 67°.

Replace all the information you know:

sinB = opp/hyp

sin67° = (15ft) / x Isolate "x". Rearrange the equation.

xsin67° = (15ft) Divide both sides by sin67°

x = (15ft) / sin67°

x = 16.295... ft Exact answer in decimals

x ≈ 16.30 ft Rounded to nearest hundredth

Therefore Fred the owl is 16.30 feet from the bird.

Gary spots a monkey...

Draw a diagram first (see below). G is Gary, M is the monkey, T is the bottom of the Sears Tower. We need to find "x", which is the distance between the monkey and the bottom of the tower.

The angle of reference is M, which is 69°. We need to find the adjacent side and we know the opposite side. The trig. ratio that has adjacent and opposite is tangent.

tanθ = opp/adj

Replace all the information you know:

tanM = opp/adj

tan69° = (442m) / x Rearrange the formula to isolate "x"

xtan69° = 442m Divide both sides by tan69°

x = 442m / tan69° Solve by dividing

x = 169.6679.... m Exact decimal answer

x ≈ 169.67m Rounded to the nearest hundredth

Therefore the monkey is 169.67 metres from the tower.

Remember all the trig. ratios using the acronym SohCahToa.

o = opposite side

a = adjacent side

h = hypotenuse side

S = sine, sin for short

C = cosine, cos for short

T = tangent, tan for short

The operation is always dividing the first side in the acronym by the second side.

sinθ = opp/hyp

cosθ = adj/hyp

tanθ = opp/adj

Write the equation of the line the passes through (1, -2) and (3, 4) in slope intercept form.

Alona [7]

Answer:

y=3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope, 4+2 over 3-1, giving you the slope of three

then set up your equation, y=3x+?

I played with the y=3x - part on the website desmos graphing calculator, I first inserted the points then found the slope and then played with the equation till it went through both the points.

Diego wants to find 4 1/5 - 7/10 .. Explain why he must rename 4 1/5 in order to do the subtraction?

nevsk [136]

Answer:

The result is 3 1/2 and this is the explanation why Diego must convert 4 1/5 from mixed number to improper fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the steps Diego should follow to find 4 1/5 - 7/10:

Step 1: Convert all mixed numbers into improper fractions.

4 1/5 = 21/5 - 7/10

Step 2: Find a common denominator between the improper fractions. When necessary, create equivalent fractions.

21/5 = 42/10 - 7/10

Step 3: Add or subtract the numerators and keep the denominator the same.

42 - 7 = 35/10

Step 4: If the answer is an improper form, reduce the fraction into a mixed number.

35/10 = 3 5/10 = 3 1/2

The result is 3 1/2 and this is the explanation why Diego must convert 4 1/5 from mixed number to improper fraction.
